Analyze a Creation Myth

Read the passage from "The Iroquois Creation Myth: The World on Turtle's Back":

---

"The conflict between the twins continued, and for some reason, their grandmother favored the left-handed twin. The right-handed twin became angry and resentful. He was the truthful twin who always did the right thing. The left-handed twin was deceitful and did everything backward. You could never trust him.

The twins represent the two ways of the world which are in all people. The Indians do not call these good and evil. They call them the straight mind and the crooked mind, the righteous man and the devious man, the right and the left."
